House of Reps Pulls Back Its State Police Amendment After Executive Bill Advances

The House of Representatives has withdrawn its own constitutional amendment to establish state police. This move follows the Executive’s tabling of a separate State Police Bill. Lawmakers passed the Executive-sponsored bill through its first and second readings at Tuesday’s plenary. The measure is now with the House Committee on Constitutional Review for detailed scrutiny. The withdrawal pauses the earlier proposal as attention shifts to the presidency’s version, whose key provisions will be examined before the bill returns for further debate.
